Key Benefits
- Reliable results in noisy substations
- Accurate testing with RE>Act™
- Remote control for safer, easier testing
- PI Predictor™ cuts test time in half
Description
The range includes three models: S1-568/2 (5 kV), S1-1068/2 (10 kV), and S1-1568/2 (15 kV). All are trusted by utility engineers, OEMs, and commissioning teams working on critical assets like transformers, cables, switchgear, and bushings.
The adaptive filter, nearly unique to Megger, monitors the rate of change in noise current and applies dynamic damping to prevent test current distortion. It predicts spikes that would otherwise affect results and stabilises readings — even during energisation events or switching noise.
Test modes include IR, DAR, PI, DD, SV, ramp, and PDC (with software). PI Predictor™ reduces Polarisation Index test time by up to 50%, and RE>Act™ shows when insulation is safe to retest, saving time and reducing risk.
Fully remote control via Bluetooth® or USB enables testing from a safe distance — or even from the comfort of an air-conditioned vehicle during extreme site conditions. Onboard memory and no-dongle Bluetooth® make data transfer seamless. High-performance guard terminals ensure measurement accuracy even with high surface leakage.
With CAT IV safety ratings, robust design, and powerful time-saving tools, the Megger Expert range gives HV professionals the speed, safety, and confidence they need to test without compromise.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which insulation tester is right for me?
Megger offers three insulation tester ranges: Essential, Advanced, and Expert. Choose Essential for routine go/no-go testing where data storage isn’t needed — it’s a cost-effective, reliable option. Choose Advanced if you need more test modes, internal data storage, or integration with reporting software. Choose Expert if you work in noisy, high-voltage environments or need remote control and maximum noise immunity. Once you know your use case, simply select the test voltage (5, 10, or 15 kV) that fits your application.
What is RE>Act™ and why does it matter?
RE>Act™ is Megger’s reabsorption current feature that tells you when insulation is safe to retest — instead of guessing or waiting unnecessarily. It helps avoid false results caused by residual charge and saves time between insulation tests, especially when testing multiple phases.
Can I run tests remotely from outside the substation?
Yes. The Expert range supports full remote operation via Bluetooth® or USB. You can set up the instrument onsite and run tests from a safer location — even from a vehicle — reducing arc-flash risk and improving comfort during long test sequences.
How do I manage and export test results?
Expert models include onboard storage and Bluetooth® connectivity — no dongle required. You can quickly transfer results to a PC and export to PowerDB or CertSuite for streamlined reporting and long-term analysis.
What makes adaptive filtering different?
Unlike basic filters, Megger’s adaptive filter responds in real time to changes in noise current. It predicts and dampens interference before it distorts results — ensuring accuracy even during switching events or nearby energisation.
